I guess they waited until they had a better idea of what they could offer over the longer season and the day before the next dlc is about as long as you could wait really.
Still kinda light on details though.

I’m pretty sure they’re making it up as they go at this point. This wasn’t planned till the end of last month after all.
Kind of shocked they announced it today. Really thought they'd hold off and announce the delay in like January. Simply for good will from the seaaon (potential) and more sales/preorders due to the December holidays.
Some of this stuff should be pretty nice to have. We can guess as to what Moments of Triumph will look like, but hey more shaders/sparrows/ships tied into triumphs from that should be nice. The Into the Light thing could be cool.
RIP
Disappointed in the delay. Gonna be a loooong season.
Really hoping they make it worth the wait, though. I don't have a ton of faith in Bungie after this last year's worth of pretty consistent bad news from them (awful Lightfall launch, problematic storytelling that embedded campaign-related story into the seasonal content, layoffs, etc), but I'm still hopeful that they can correct course and deliver on their promises.
